What to do when someone steals your content?

The problem is that when you confront the person he might not be able to respond well in the way you like. I have seen a big company using a lawsuits to threaten a competitor to take similar contents to their own and it works.

Suing them is the only logical option after you tried to contact them and tell them to delete the stolen content. Filing a DMCA is probably the fastest way to get it removed.

There is often the case where you can report the content that is being stolen, however when it comes to online forums like this it does not always work because there is no copyright claim on your work.

If you have been publishing online for a long time and if you have multiple websites and forums, it is not possible to look for your stolen content. With the evolution of tools like ChatGPT, I think people will be more interested in created content through AI rather than stealing someone's cotent.
